Abstract

See full text

A method and a system for dynamic imaging, UV-exposure and thermal development of relief image printing elements, including printing plates and printing sleeves. The imaging step is accomplished using ink jet printing to create an in situ mask layer on a layer of photocurable material followed by exposing the photocurable layer to actinic radiation through the in situ mask. Thereafter, the printing element is developed in a thermal developing system to create the desired relief image in the surface. If desired, the improved system may also include means for post-exposing/detacking the printing element.
